They do.... Final Fantasy? Dragon Quest?, heavily inspired by European mythology. And are you kidding me? LoD was extremely Japanesy, there is nothing western about it. It was literally medieval power rangers with alittle ff7 thrown in there for good measure. If  anything the battle system at time was the biggest turn off as it wasnt traditional and we know that western gamers are more open to change than the Japanese.

Maybe you can tell me why do you think it was extremely Japanesy.
Because it had medieval castles, cities, weapons, armors, cloths, people, and some other very european stuff... it even had a broken coliseum.

I dont think you get what 'western" and "Japanese" means. It not just based on art direction as Japanese games can use western mythology in their games and vice versa. Its a game design thing. You can obviously tell that LoD was made by a Japanese developer. There is nothing western in LoD that turn Japanese gamers away. Western mythology and art have always been apart of Jrpgs. If they hated western looking games than RE,MGS, somes FF ext wold not exist.
